Anyone remember KDIA, Jumpin' George? KOBY Radio? KYA? The Doggie Diner? The afternoon Oakland Tribune? Waiting in the car to catch the ferry before the completion of the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. The Oakland Oaks and the PCL. Bob Sherwood, what was the name of his early TV-Talk/variety show? The dance party on KPIX. The Saturday dance party show with kids from all over the Bay Area.

Not sure if everyone was aware, The Oasis is open again. But it's a Trans/Cross dressing oriented gathering and entertainment spot now. Not a "New Wave" / alt club. But who knows. Now that it's gone from an abandoned, peed on, graffiti covered eyesore back to a real club, lots of additional things can happen. If it's successful there may be cool events there.

Regarding "The Great Entertainer" that was / is actually a mini-chain. There is still one in San Mateo, on El Camino just south of Hwy 92.
